The Bible never ceases to astound me! Even after many years of reading and studying, it still produces new gems. Reading the closing verses of 2 Corinthians recently, I was challenged by the following: ‘Aim for perfection … be of one mind, live in peace. And the God of love and peace will be with…

I’m really excited to be back after a couple of weeks off, and eager to get back to normal! As I write the word ‘normal’, I can feel a challenge coming on. What does ‘normal’ look like? I suppose it’s the same routine, same people, same conversations, same frustrations, the same expectations? Maybe our ‘normal’…

Our summer bulletin is available today, and we hope it’s a useful guide in keeping updated with all things ‘CCC’. Although we are condensing all the information into one booklet, Church is still very much open for business: the business of being centred in Christ, connected in relationship, called to community and challenged to grow!…

It is always a joy to meet together to worship God, to acknowledge Him and express our love for Him and our appreciation for the life-giving sacrifice of His son, our saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ. I’ve been challenged again as I look at the New Testament and marvel at the way each individual author…

Reading through the book of Proverbs this week, I’m reminded again of just how practical (and spiritual) it truly is. This collection of guidelines on godly living brings many warnings and encouragements our way, providing a clear contrast between God’s heart for how He desires us to live and the pitfalls of the ‘fallen’ human…

After a very eventful week, especially on the political stage, I am convinced, more than ever, that our nation needs to rediscover its Christian heritage. When certainty and stability are present, apathy towards faith is never far away and, when disorder grips, there are many who go into ‘fear mode’. In my mind, the last…

I’m sure we’re in for a great day with two opportunities to be together both this morning and tonight, as we gather for a very special ‘Refresh’ and welcome our very good friends Sasha, Sara and Lidija Vitakic from Serbia! Excited to hear what they have to share this evening! Before we embark on our…

We give you a warm welcome on this Fathers’ Day. It’s great to be able to celebrate and honour our dads! As with mothers, being a father is more than just having a name on an offspring’s birth certificate, it’s about a whole list of things: unconditional and ceaseless love; sharing time together and just…

Today is our vision day. In case you’re wondering what that really means for us, it’s about looking forward! It’s true that we are taught by Jesus to live in today; it’s the only day that is guaranteed. However, He isn’t saying not to think about tomorrow; just don’t worry about it along the way.…

This week we are focusing on our last core value, looking at the topic of relationship. It’s by no means the least of our values; if anything, it is the most important one because it is out of our relationships that everything else finds its place: we are called to community through relationship; committed to…
